How much force is needed to stop a 50 kg gymnast if he decelerates at 25 m/s^2

Physics
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]3 years ago
3 0
The force can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the gymnast with her acceleration.

Force = 50 kg × 25 m/s2
Force = 1250 N

A force of at least 1250 N can stop the 50-kg gymnast.

I hope I was able to answer your question. Have a good day.

During the time that the blocks are in contact, describe whether the center of mass of the two-block system is speeding up, slow
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The center of mass of the two-block system is staying the same and it can be explained with the help of linear momentum equation.

Explanation:

The center of mass of the two-block system is staying the same and it can be explained with the help of linear momentum equation.

Equation:

P=mv

This equation holds if no external force is acting on the system it means the momentum of the system is constant.

In our case, there is no external force which means the total momentum of system is constant:

P=constant

Total mass of system is also constant:

m=constant

It means the velocity of the system is constant (from above equation) thus center of mass of the two-block system is staying the same

What is the acceleration of a rock at the top of its trajectory when thrown straight upward. explain whether or not the answer i
zvonat [6]

The acceleration of the rock is the gravitational acceleration due to earth which is around 9.8 m/s^2. As the rock travels upwards it is working against the constant force of gravity and when it reaches the top it is the force of gravity that will cause a cause in the direction of the rocks velocity and cause it to accelerate towards earth. Using the equation a = F/m, the acceleration due to gravity exerts a force per unit mass on an object causing the object to accelerate, anything above earth surface will therefore have an external gravitational force action on it (in terms of projectile motion). So at the top of the rocks trajectory, the acceleration of the rock will be g (9.8) as a constant force is gravity is exerted on the rock throughout its path.

How is fabric made from fur different from fabric made of hair?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The principal hair fiber used to produce textile fabrics is sheep's wool. In wild sheep, the wool is a short, soft underlayer protected by longer, coarser hair. ... Fur fibers from animals such as mink and beavers are sometimes blended with other hairs to spin luxury yarns but are most often found as fur pelts.
